Domestic connected with foe governments new emphasis on military defense against world powers is President Roosevelts interest in espionage. For 20 years foe U. S. has disregarded spies, though foe increasing frequency of arrests has made Americans fearful of Germany, Italy, Japan and Russia. Heightening the tension have been: (1) foe Munich agreement which placed democracies on foe defensive; (2) arrest in of four Germans taking photographs in foe Canal Zone; (3) trial in New York of four alp leged Nazi agents, with coincident efforts to prove indictments against 14 others who escaped foe spy net and fled to Germany. Greatest interest in foe espionage trial lies in Johanna Hoffman, who reportedly transported spy messages from New York to Germany while serving as hairdresser on foe liner Europa. Second interest lies in Guenther Gustav Rumrich, former U. S. army sergeant who deserted and made a blundering attempt to secure 35 passport blanks last June. Legitimacy of U. S. fears was verified when Rumrich pleaded guilty and turned states witness. Though New Yorks spy trial appears commonplace, its significance is tremendous. Not only does it mark an emboldened U. S. defense attitude, but legal experts also explain it is foe first time America has named a supposedly friendly power (Germany) in direct charges. Since indictments, are filed against heads of foe German secret service and naval intelligence, foe trial is a dynamite potential international keg.
